Holiday by Rail
Holiday by Rail.
“All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy,” as the old saying goes, and it is certainly true that everyone needs a holiday. At the same time it is also true that time means money to business people, and in these difficult times it is almost impossible for them to take a holiday. The Railway Department has solved this problem, and are now running week-end excursions at specially reduced fares.
These trips comprise visits to all places of interest and beauty in New Zealand, and their educational value is unlimited. It is surprising how many people live and die in a country without knowing anything of its nature. The Railway Department is helping the people to appreciate the beauty of the country in which they live, and at the same time enjoy a much-needed “playtime.”
